My grandfather used to make a version using sliced wieners and a bit of canned corn (no beef or mushrooms). I've been looking for that recipe. Anyone familiar with it?? Also, I always thought the name "slumgullion" was something he made up!!

Full five stars, for simplicity! I love simple recipes. I'm nearly done cooking this now. I had to halve it (the original recipe is just far too much food for the three of us), and I tossed in some chopped bell peppers as well, since my hubby likes them, and this is the sort of recipe that's easy to experiment with. It smells delicious, and there's no way that it won't taste as good as it smells. Note: I just learned that in a pinch (we just moved and don't have all the necessities), you can brown ground beef in a pot. It actually works better than a skillet. Food for thought.

I gave it 4 stars because I had to tweak a little. Added beef base, worcestershire, parmesan cheese and sugar to cut the acidity taste of the tomatoes. Some basil for seasoning. Only used 1-1/2 c of tomato sauce and 8 oz of macaroni. Very kid friendly.

I had leftover prego spaghetti sauce so I used it instead of the tomato sauce. Great served sprinkled with parmesan cheese.

This was a fast, easy recipe to make in a hurry. Start to finish only took about 25 minutes. I added some garlic salt, in addition to the minced garlic and also added some green peppers, as suggested by other reviewers. Topped it with a little shredded cheddar and it was very good.

It was very good, just a little bland. I don't think there's anything to really do about that; it's more of a preference than anything. I used ziti instead of macaroni pasta just because that's what I had at home! Great recipe, awesome for a cold winter meal!

With the changes I made, this was a five star recipe. I cut the recipe in half, but based on other reviews, I still used 1 can tomato sauce and a whole can of stewed tomatoes for the sauce. This is what I did. I cooked 8 oz. pasta in water and browned my beef in a skillet. I have an onion hater, and a garlic hater, so I used powdered of both so they wouldn't know it was in there. :) I added a few spices to the mix, since there were many complaints of blandness-McCormick Grill seasoning, basil, a bit of brown sugar. I simmered the spices, beef and tomatos until the macaroni was done which ended up taking 20 minutes. I'm glad it took so long, though, because it gave the stewed tomatoes a chance to break down a bit. My kids gobbled this up. Even my husband went back for seconds!
